Quick Start

Requirements

• A Rails application with Lesli
• SQLite by default, or PostgreSQL when preferred by the host application

Install LesliDashboard

Add the engine to the host Rails application and prepare its database:

bundle add lesli_dashboard
bin/rails lesli:db:prepare

Mount the engine

Applications using Lesli's standard router mount LesliDashboard automatically at /dashboard:

# config/routes.rb
Rails.application.routes.draw do
    Lesli::Router.mount(self)
end

If the application does not use the standard Lesli router, mount the engine directly:

# config/routes.rb
Rails.application.routes.draw do
    mount LesliDashboard::Engine => "/dashboard"
end

Start Rails and visit http://127.0.0.1:3000/dashboard:

bin/rails server

Development

Clone LesliDashboard into the host application's engines directory:

cd RailsApp
mkdir -p engines
git clone https://github.com/LesliTech/LesliDashboard.git engines/LesliDashboard

Reference the local engine from the host application's Gemfile:

gem "lesli_dashboard", path: "engines/LesliDashboard"

Install dependencies, prepare the host database, and start Rails:

bundle install
bin/rails lesli:db:prepare
bin/rails server

Tests

From a complete Lesli development workspace, run the engine test suite from the LesliDashboard directory:

cd engines/LesliDashboard
bin/rails test
